Selector has launched its inaugural Product of the Show Awards. The Awards will run as a lead up to Designex and Buildnz 2011 – the premier trade event for the building, design and interiors industries in New Zealand.

Finalists and winners will be announced in advance of Designex and Buildnz 2011. Winning products will be showcased at the Product of the Show stand over the duration of the trade show.

Finalists and winners will receive recognition through a range of AGM Publishing titles including Architecture NZ, Landscape Architecture NZ, Progressive Building and Selector, and will be showcased in Selector’s newsletters which reaches all key design and building professionals.

Finalists and winners will have the opportunity to promote their commendations ahead of Designex and Buildnz 2011. Winning collateral along with appropriate logos will be supplied for this purpose.

Entries will be judged by an eminent panel of three judges. The judging process will be anonymous, transparent and confidential.
